Why Board Evaluation from an External Advisor?

Board Evaluations have grown in importance as governance and regulatory frameworks around the world have developed as a means of measuring and enhancing board performance. Performance-focused boards have created effective processes to assess the performance each and every director and the performance of the board as a whole.

Many of the progressing boards today are working with External Advisors on these evaluations and are searching for a wide-ranging, unbiased opinion.

Companies are already required by the UK Corporate Governance Code to conduct an externally facilitated effectiveness review once every three years, and this requirement is widely regarded in other jurisdictions (including Australia, Brazil, France, India, and Japan) as a sign of a board's emphasis on continuous improvement
